EVENING AND WEEKEND APPOINTMENTS. I work to help people break out of the stuck places in their lives to experience wholeness, growth, and freedom. The freedom to create the lives they want. Freedom to heal from past wounds and failures. The power to overcome. The ability to give more to the people you love. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 30 years of experience in the Tampa Bay area I have had the privilege to work with people of all ages in the St. Petersburg, Pinellas Park, Largo, and Clearwater communities. With the use of videoconferencing counseling is no limited to geographic areas.
My style combines psychological, spiritual, and philosophical principals to help motivate people to greater levels of accomplishment and satisfaction in their lives. I attempt to use unique perspectives and insight combined with humor when appropriate to illuminate paths to hope, peace, and freedom.
So if you find yourself stuck in depression or anxiety, addictions or codependency, or other destructive habits and relationships, or you need help parenting your child or teen let me help you live, love, and function more effectively.
Call or Russell Porter now for a free 15 minute consultation - (727) 455-5110
